How To Beat Roulette - The Man Who Broke The Bank At Monte Carlo!

[Lee Richardson]

Looking at the faces in a crowded qualifying room for Texas Hold'em, I
can tell that the average gambler would have no idea of what I'm
talking about when it comes to the above title. The new generation of
gamblers are much too young to even have heard of the guy who broke
the bank in Monte Carlo in roulette.
I wasn't even born when this occured, but the song that was written
about it led me to learn more. His name was Charles Wells. He was an
Englishman who went to the casino in Monte Carlo sometime in July of
1891 with 10,000 francs with the intention of winning at roulette
( the french wheel of roulette) and within a few day had won a cool
million dollars. He returned some four months later and won another
million. His third time around, the following year, he lost it all.
Resorting to trickery or cheating, he was later imprisoned and in time
died broke. He's the guy who gave Monte Carlo's casino it's world wide
fame. He later admitted that he had no roulette system, and that it
was all a run of luck.
In any event, roulette is no doubt the ideal game for systems as long
as you are not using a mechanical device for counting (in other words
trickery). But keep in mind there's no such thing as a certain system
that guarantees a certain win, not even in roulette. In gambling, no
matter what the game, the house always has the percentage in its
favor.
How to beat roulette is rather simple, but involves practice,
practice, and more practice away from the table, until you get it
right. The key is to know the roulette odds, have a cool head, and
play in partnership with someone else who practices, is cool, and
knows the odds as well. Because there is a many ways of betting in
roulette, and the long pauses between roulette wheel spins, there is
time to write down numbers and try to make sense of the sequence of
numbers, so people think they can figure this out. Wrong.
This is not the way you're going to figure out how to beat roulette.
The object of roulette systems, is not to anticipate what is coming up
next, but rather to have a betting plan mapped out to take advantage
of both the common and uncommon numbers according to their payouts.
Therefore, two players or more playing as partners using the same
system, can all make a profit betting on opposite chances. So practice
on a home version of roulette until you get it right.
It's also crucial to understand the amount of capital you'll need to
operate any roulette system, to b e successful. It's pointless to use
a system if you're going to be wiped out the first time you hit a bad
run of two or three rounds. And, trying a system right at the casino
without first practicing it, will bring you financial disaster. At
least for the amount of capital you were planning to play with.
